Ike Denies Trying To Half Hiss Program
New York -lliril- Dwight D.
Eisenhower Tuesday scotched
a report he had tried to hall
the appearance of convicted
perjurer Alger Hiss on a con
troversial television program
about former Vice President
Kichard M. Nixon.
The former president con
firmed he had called his for
mer press secretary, James C.
Jlagcrly, now vice president
in charge of news for the
American Broadcasting Co.,
which aired the program.
'The Political Obituary of
Richard M. Nixon.
However, Eisenhower main
tained: "I expressed amazement,
but never in my life have I
ever asked anybody not to
report a story after they got it
fully. Anyone has the preroga
tive to make an analysis of
somebody's career, but it was
unusual."
Eisenhower said he phoned
Hagcrty because he wanted to
"find out what it was all
about."
Eisenhower was prompted
to make the statement about
the program, which flooded
ABC with viewer protests be
cause! of Hiss' participation,
because GOP National Chair
man William E. Miller was re
ported to have said Eiscnhow.
or altcmpted to have the show
called off. Miller subsequently
denied making such a state
ment. Hagerly, a close associate of
Eisenhower during the Re
publican's eight years in of
fice, confirmed what the for
mer president said. Hagerly
said:
'Gen. Eisenhower telephon-1
cd me at my home Sunday
morning, said he had received
conflicting rumors from
friends about the (Howard K.)
Smith program. These rumors
were that Hiss was going to
be interviewed for a half-hour

on a program dealing with
Dick Nixon's political career.
He expressed astonishment, if
this were so.
"I told him this was not so
and outlined the format of the
program in which Hiss had
only a small part. I told him
of the others who were ap
pearing on the program and
that concluded the conversation."

Relief Shipments
Being Rushed To
Victims on Guam
Agana. Guam - (LTD - The
United States today rushed
massive relief shipments to
the island of Guam, where
Typhoon Karen Sunday caus
ed destruction "like a whole
army of workers with big
scythes."
As Air Force C130 trans
ports landed on the island's
battered airfields with the
first consignments of tons of
tents, food, and medicine, the
death toll rose to seven with
the discovery of another body
in the rubble of a building.
Officials said they expected
to find others in the wreck
age of buildings on the island,
which received a worse bat
tering from Karen's 200-milc-
an-hour winds than it did
from two World War II in
vasions. Filipino! Dead
The Philippines Foreign
Office in Manila said three
Filipinos on Guam were kill
ed in the storm. It was not
immediately known if they
were included in the seven
bodies recovered.
Air Force typhoon trackers
in Tokyo said Karen, its
winds down to 150 miles an
hour, was 431 miles south
of the U.S. Military bastion
of Okinawa tonight. Forecas
ters said winds in the Okin
awa area were not expected
to exceed 81 miles an hour
during the next 24 hours.
Acting Gov. Manuel Guer
rero of Guam warned the is
larfdcrs against drinking wa
ter except that from inspect
ed stations and told the 9,000
persons who lost their homes
that help was on the way.
One of the first pilots to
fly in with emergency per
sonnel and equipment, Col.
William II. Lewis, Pasadena,
Calif., described the island as
seen from the air:
"It was just hell. 11 was
total destruction. It looked
to me like a whole army of
workers with big scythes had
just gone across the whole
place and chopped down ev
erything they could see. Ev
erything was lying down.
Smashed. Even the forests
were lying down."
Buildings Damages
Lewis, commander of the
815th Troop Carrier Squad
ron in Japan, said "All the
buildings not typhoon-proof
were destroyed or damaged
to a serious degree and a
large percentage of the ty
phoon-proof buildings were
heavily damaged.
He said a heavier casualty
toll was avoided because peo
ple "doubled up in the typhoon-proof
buildings before
the storm hit."
